As the Zope Resurrection sprint is approaching, it seems useful to share some information on the schedule for the three days in Halle. As we have also some sprinters, who can not join on site, but might want to join remotely, a few key facts might come in handy.

Etherpad

There is the Etherpad, where the current list of topics is collected. Most of the stories we are going to tackle will be based on this list. In case you have something to add, or are interested in a specific topic in particular, it is a good idea to add your thoughts before the start of the sprint.

IRC Channel

During the sprint we will communicate via the #sprint channel on irc.freenode.net, so additional information and questions can be placed there.

Google Hangout

As the sprint is also intended to foster discussions about the future of Zope, we want to encourage as many people as possible to join. Therefore, we have a hangout where we will meet.

zc.sourcefactory is very handy to easily create a source (zope.schema.interfaces.IIterableSource to be precise) with corresponding titles and tokens for its contents. Every now and then a source requires an explicit interface. For zc.sourcefactory the following code snippet helps:

Of course it is also possible to declare the source_class separately from the source factory and reference it. But since its sole purpose is to hold an implements declaration, I’m fine with defining it inline.
